Cygors are blind to the physical world but can sense and follow the trails of magic that permeate reality. They seek out sorcerers, wizards and other beings rich in eldritch power, cramming these spellcasters into their slavering maws and feasting upon the raw magic that spills from their broken bodies.

17.2 Mortal Damage
Some abilities inflict mortal damage. If an ability inflicts mortal damage on a unit, add that number of damage points to the unit’s damage pool for that ability (see 18.2 Allocating Damage).

The MONSTER keyword is used in the following Beasts of Chaos warscrolls:

• Chimera
• Cygor
• Ghorgon
Shooting attacks
Shooting attacks are made with ranged weapons. The target unit(s) must be within a distance equal to the Range characteristic of the weapon being used and visible to the attacking model. Models cannot make shooting attacks if their unit is in combat, unless otherwise specified (see 20.0 Weapon Abilities).
Shoot in Combat
This weapon can be used to make shooting attacks even if the attacking unit is in combat.
Anti-X (+1 Rend)
Add 1 to this weapon’s Rend characteristic if the target has the keyword after ‘Anti-’ or fulfils the condition after ‘Anti-’. Multiples of this ability are cumulative. For example, if a weapon has both Anti-charge (+1 Rend) and Anti-HERO (+1 Rend), then add 2 to the Rend characteristic of the weapon for attacks that target a HERO that charged in the same turn.
1.1 Power Level
Each WIZARD and PRIEST has a power level shown after the keyword, e.g. WIZARD (2). A WIZARD’s casting power level determines how many Spell abilities they can use per phase. A PRIEST’s chanting power level determines how many PRAYER abilities they can use per phase.

MULTIPLE POWER LEVELS
  • If an ability references a unit’s power level and that unit has more than one power level, use whichever power level is higher.
  • If an ability modifies a unit’s power level and that unit has more than one power level, it modifies both.
6.0 Visibility
A target model is visible to another model (which we’ll call the ‘observing model’) if you can draw a straight line through the air (whether horizontal, diagonal or vertical) from any point on the observing model to any point on the target model that does not intersect any objects except for other models in the observing model’s unit. A target unit is visible to an observing unit if at least 1 model in the target unit is visible to at least 1 model in the observing unit. A model is always considered to be visible to itself.
If a rule or ability requires a target to be both within a given range of and visible to the unit using that ability, or to a model in that unit, both conditions must be met by the same model in the target. You could not, for instance, target a unit where one model is within range but not visible and another model is not in range but is visible.
  • If any part of another model can be seen by an observing model, both the target model and its unit are visible to that observing model.

In some cases, it might not be immediately clear whether a model is visible. If so, stoop down to get a look from behind the observing model. If any part of the other model is visible, even if it is just the tip of a spear, then that model is visible for rules purposes.
18.1 Ward Saves
Units with the WARD keyword have the ‘Ward Save’ passive ability. The number after the WARD keyword indicates the ward value for the ward save. If a unit had WARD (5+), for example, its ward value would be 5. If a unit has more than one ward save, only the ward save with the lowest value applies to it; the other has no effect.

Passive
WARD SAVE: Whether through their uncanny reflexes, unnatural toughness or a source of mystical protection, these warriors can avoid otherwise lethal attacks.

Effect: In step 1 of the damage sequence (see 18.0), make a ward roll of D6 for each damage point in this unit’s damage pool. If the roll equals or exceeds this unit’s ward value, remove that damage point from the damage pool.

2.0 Spells
The declare step of each spell will tell you to make a casting roll of 2D6. If the roll does not equal or exceed the spell’s casting value (at the top-right corner of the spell), the spell fails and its effect is not resolved.

If the unmodified casting roll includes 2 or more rolls of 1, the spell is miscast: the spell fails, its effect is not resolved, D3 mortal damage is inflicted on the WIZARD that used it, and that WIZARD cannot use any more spells in that phase.

Enemy reactions can only be used if the casting roll equals or exceeds the spell’s casting value. So long as the spell is not unbound (see 4.0), then it is successfully cast: resolve its effect.

EXAMPLE SPELL
Your Hero Phase
6
MYSTIC SHIELD: The caster's allies are bathed in an unearthly glow that protects them from harm.

Declare: Pick a visible friendly unit wholly within 12" of this WIZARD to be the target. Then, make a casting roll of 2D6.

Effect: The target has WARD (6+) this turn.
KEYWORDSSPELL

4.0 Unbinding Spells
Each WIZARD can use the ‘Unbind’ reaction a number of times per phase equal to their power level. Th is is an exception to The Rules of One (Core Rules, 5.3).

Reaction: Opponent declared a SPELL ability
UNBIND: The wizard saps the energy from an enemy’s spell, nullifying its effects.

Used By: A friendly WIZARD within 30" of the enemy WIZARD casting the spell.

Effect: Make an unbinding roll of 2D6. If the roll exceeds the casting roll tor the spell, then the spell is unbound and its effect is not resolved. This reaction cannot be used more than once per casting roll.
KEYWORDSUNBIND

1.0 Wizards and Priests
WIZARDS are special units that can cast spells, and PRIESTS are special units that can chant prayers. Spells and prayers are powerful abilities that can have a dramatic impact on the battle.
7.2 Banishing Manifestations
Instead of using a SPELL or PRAYER ability (including when using the ‘Magical Intervention’ ability), each WIZARD and PRIEST can use the ‘Banish Manifestation’ ability:

Your Hero Phase
BANISH MANIFESTATION: The wizard or priest disrupts the arcane forces sustaining a manifestation, wiping it from existence.

Declare: Pick a friendly WIZARD or PRIEST to use this ability, pick a MANIFESTATION within 30" of them that was not summoned this turn to be the target, then make a banishment roll of 2D6. Add 1 to the banishment roll for each additional enemy MANIFESTATION on the battlefield after the first.

Effect: If the banishment roll equals or exceeds the banishment value listed on the MANIFESTATION’s warscroll, it is banished and removed from play.
